This study introduces a robust sliding mode controller combined with a Smith predictor to effectively manage integrating processes with significant deadtime. The new approach enhances control performance despite potential modeling errors.

Area of Science:

  • Control Engineering
  • Process Control
  • Automation Systems

Background:

  • Integrating processes with significant deadtime pose challenges for traditional control methods.
  • Existing Smith predictor controllers can suffer performance degradation due to modeling uncertainties.
  • Sliding mode control offers inherent robustness against disturbances and parameter variations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a novel controller for integrating processes with elevated deadtime.
  • To enhance the robustness and performance of Smith predictor controllers in the presence of modeling errors.
  • To provide a practical and implementable control scheme for industrial applications.

Main Methods:

  • A Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) sliding surface was designed.
